As a non-profit organization, we rely on tax-deductible donations to feed and house retired racing greyhounds, and to cover the costs of emergency veterinary care. The average cost per greyhound while in our care is $530 while our adoption fee is only $295.
The fundraising efforts of the Fundraising Committee help to supplement donations so that every hound that passes our doorway is properly cared for while awaiting their forever home. We have many fundraising activities that are available which are listed below.

We also provide a method to make a cash donation using PayPal and also a unique opportunity to provide a donation in honor of or in memory of a special person in your life with a personalized Donation Card.
And for those who adopted from SEGA, we have our very own GOTCHA Certificate that is personalized with the name of your hound and the date of your adoption. Definitely a keepsake. And for those who have a stash of photos of your hound, we have our Photo Gallery where you can show off your hound to your family and friends!
Our group also recycles laser, ink jet cartridges, working cell phones,and aluminum cans. These programs provide needed funds for the hounds awaiting adoption. For further information about these recycling programs, please contact fundraising@greyhoundadoption.org.
